PhD Book Club

Our first book of the new academic year will be the memoir Lab Girl: A story of trees, science and love, by Hope Jahren.

Lab Girl is a prizewinning 2016 memoir about plants, science, and mental illness, by American geochemist, geobiologist and professor Hope Jahren. It's a gripping read, and we'll meet on Friday September 19th, 3.30pm in the Chaplaincy to discuss.

To borrow a copy of Lab Girl, please email Chaplaincy@ed.ac.uk.

If you have time over the summer, you might also like to check out Jahren's book about climate change and human consumption, The Story of More.
